Abstract：With the increasing development of globalization, cooperation and communication between people from every corner of the world become inevitable and frequent. But due to the different cultural backgrounds, people of different cultures respond differently to the same situation. Accordingly, people have different ways to show their emotions, too. So difficulties and problems in communication between people from different cultures are unavoidable.
In order to avoid unnecessary problems and make communication more efficient, it is necessary to learn about the cultural context. So in this paper, the author focuses on the importance of the cultural context in intercultural communication, especially in the emotional expression.
This paper consists of four parts. The first part is the brief introduction of the necessity and significance of doing such a study. In the second part, high-context and low-context communications are illustrated. The third part is to demonstrate the differences of emotional expressions of people from high-context and low-context cultures. The last chapter is to draw the conclusion.
Keywords: high-context low-context emotional expression difference
